This time on The B-Movie Cast, Mary, Nic and Juan are checking out the second lost continent of Caprona film with the AIP 1977 film “The People That Time Forgot”. It’s the sequel to the film from our last podcast on “The Land That Time Forgot” and begs the question, what’s wrong with time that it keeps forgetting stuff?
This time we have Patrick Wayne leading an expedition to find Doug McClure’s character Tyler from the first film. Times have been rough in Caprona though, because there just aren’t that many dinosaurs to be found this time around. That’s OK though, the film makes up for it with the Naga, weird woman sacrificing, Japanese armor-wearing, samurai sword-wielding bad guys that live in the prototype for Castle Greyskull from “He-Man”.
So grab yourself a beer, heat up that TV dinner and let’s get ready to check out the second Edgar Rice Burroughs’ “The People That Time Forgot” (AKA: “Hogan Dates Out of His League!”).

This episode of the B-Movie Cast is a special look at a film that most people outside of the former Soviet Union probably haven’t heard of “Irony of Fate” (aka- Enjoy Your Bath). This 1975 film is the Russian go to film for New Year celebrations.
Joining Mary and Nic to discuss this film is our favorite expert on all things Russian: Matt Kowalski! We dig into the background of this film as well as the New Year holiday traditions that Russia adopted after Christmas went kaput under communism. So grab your favorite TV dinner, crack open a cold one (or for this pour yourself a shot of vodka) and check out “Irony of Fate” on the B-Movie Cast.

On this episode of The B-Movie Cast Mary, Nic and Juan are checking out a strange little sort-of Christmas movie called “Whoever Slew Auntie Roo”. It’s set in England and stars Shelley Winters, Mark Lester, and Ralph Richardson. It’s a take on the Hansel and Gretel story that takes some dark turns. So join the gang as we try desperately to find one character in this dark little film who isn’t absolutely despicable!

On this episode of the B-Movie Cast Mary and Nic are joined by two special guests from the U.K.: show regular, photographer & writer Mark Mawston and filmmaker John Stevenson (director of “Kung Fu Panda” and “Sherlock Gnomes”).
We start the show off with our top movie picks from 2019. We’re not just talking new films, we’re also looking at any movies we saw for the first time in 2019. Then the gang is taking a look at one of Clive Barker’s most interesting, and controversial, films: “Nightbreed” from 1990. This is a film that turns the idea of horror on its head. It asks the question “what if the monsters were the heroes?”. While Barker’s original film clocked in at over 2.5 hours, the studio released a heavily edited cut that just ran 1 hour & 42 minutes. However, we’re checking out one of the ‘director’s cut versions which has more than 20 minutes of additional footage.
So join us in looking at a lost gem featuring amazing make-up and practical special effects as well as a truly original story from one of horror’s legends; Clive Barker!

On this episode of the B-Movie Cast Mary, Nic and Juan are back and we’re asking a hard-hitting question: What do you get when you cross Native American lore, The 1970s, and filmmaker William Girdler? Well, it looks like it’s a topless woman shooting lasers out of her hands at the reincarnated spirit of an ancient Native American Shaman who grew from a lump on her back in less than a week… also known as “The Manitou”. Oh and let’s not forget that Tony Curtis shows up in this one dressed as a discount version of Dumbledore from “Harry Potter”. Yes, “The Manitou” is chock-full of all the goodness you’ve come to love from the filmmaker who brought us “Grizzly”, “Day of the Animals” and the infamous “Exorcist” clone film “Abby”.
So grab a beer, warm up that TV dinner and get ready to enjoy the film that proves Tony Curtis was spending a lot of money on alimony in the 1970s: “The Manitou”.
Oh and want to know more about the late filmmaker William Girdler- well check out his website: http://williamgirdler.com/
